Writing to the end of a file

[Greg Reeder]

Hello everyone and merry Christmas ( {eve day} depending on time zones etc)

I have a general quesiton. I am trying to design a logger class, and I want to close a log, and then reopen it later for the next issue, and [here is the key and the reason I am writing this today] write a brief description of the exception at the very end of the file. The question is, what class must I use in order to write the new lines at the very end of the existing file without going through the hassle of creating a tmp file, re-writing, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera?

Thanks in advance,

Greg

I found a useful related post for you.

But the idea is to use one of the java.io.Writer implementation and then use its append method.

Thank you! That little 'true' was all I needed. Thanks.
